Do you even have basic connectivity...? Can you ping 192.168.0.1? I know
nothing of ICS; but does it really support forwarding of DNS (docs could be
wrong, or you may need another option)? Or, should you tell your Linux box the
ISP DNS addresses?
If the ping works, try setting the ISP DNS addresses. If not, fix that first.
